It’s a match! Serena Williams is engaged to her boyfriend, Reddit cofounder Alexis Ohanian. The tennis pro and tech guru announced the happy news on Reddit and Facebook on Thursday, December 29.

In a thread titled “I Said Yes,” Williams shared their romantic proposal story on Reddit. “I came home / A little late / Someone had a bag packed for me / And a carriage awaited / Destination: Rome / To escort me to my very own “charming” / Back to where our stars first collide / And now it was full circle / At the same table we first met by chance / This time he made it not by chance / But by choice / Down on one knee / He said 4 words / And / isaidyes,” she shared.

Ohanian responded to her poem and wrote: “And you made me the happiest man on the planet.”

Ohanian announced their engagement on his own Facebook account on Thursday, posting a cartoon photo of him proposing to Williams with a giant diamond.
